Abstract We describe a novel compact power splitter with tunable power splitting ratios based on multimode interference couplers employing area modulation in a polymer. The experiments show large tuning ranges with splitting ratio varies from 6:94 to 88:12 and low heating power of 5mW for π phase shift.
